    I wouldn't say you look happy- more like dopey (as in: you're all drugged up- not that you're not smart).
    Yikes- it IS huge. I'm glad the surgery went well. I'm hoping for a speedy recovery for you!!!

    Snap-been a while since I checked in..just wanted to say that I'm glad things are slowly getting better for you. At least your beginning to be able to sleep somewhat comfortably. Then your starting to move around some. Those are all great. I hope that your recovery contiunes to progress in good fashion.

    Wow - what a lovely turtleneck!

    Glad things went well. Heal up! I am sure lemon drops go wonderfully with pain meds....

    I took a shower today -- what a wonderful invention the shower is! I now have a "shower collar" and a "dry collar" I survived on Advil today -- makes me less foggy than the hydorcodone/apap. I'll take that at night -- knocks me right out.

    Tomorrow I may try a short walk. Maybe around the backyard.

    Yay, Snap! Showers after you cannot have one are the ULTIMATE indulgence. You probably feel much more human now! I'm glad all has gone well. Take it easy and start to heal now.

    You take care Snap.

    Just do as you are told and everything should go well, mind you, that's the difficult bit.

    Snap- here is wishing you peace and quiet. Hoping that you will heal quickly. Sounds like your beginning to be a bit more mobile which I'm sure must be a relief. Showers are the best. There is nothing like feeling clean! Hope things contiune to go well for you. Maybe a trip to the mailbox or a short walk to the end of the block?

    Best Wishes,
    Red Rock
